I don't have one yet, but by looks and description, I choose Retaliation. Though far from perfect, it just looks more like something with the added detail and firepower. Maybe my thoughts will change whe I have ig in hand, but I doubt it.
But the treads don't work.

I'm surprised at how many people I run into that believe this. The treads are rubber, when rubber gets cold it gets stiff. It's easy to see if you move them with your hand that your treads have molded to the shape of the rims they are bent across.
So all you do is warm/loosen up the treads and they roll very well. Place the tank on a hard surface then move the bent trend so it's in the middle and not on the end then roll it back and forth for a few minutes. You basically want to get that bend in the rubber straighten out. It goes from clunky to jittery to smooth in a few minutes. I guess you if it's bad enough you could warm the trends in sunlight for a few minuted but I haven't had to. Rolls like a champ. The hiss scout rolls even better then the big one because the rubber relaxes faster. |

It's easily 75° or more in my apartment most of the time. Still I'll try the heat trick on one of these brown junkers to see if I can get it to roll as fast as any free-wheeled toy. I'm skeptical and it definitely seems like a lot of extra work. With that I doubt my opinion of it will change.

Both, with a slight edge for V5.
